Best Public Schools in Chateaugay, NY

Summary:

The city of Chateaugay, New York is home to two schools: Chateaugay Elementary School and Chateaugay High School, both part of the Chateaugay Central School District. While Chateaugay High School is a standout performer, consistently ranking in the top 25-35% of New York high schools, the elementary school appears to be struggling academically compared to state averages.

Chateaugay High School boasts a strong 84.3% four-year graduation rate, well above the state average, and its students perform significantly better than the state average on a variety of Regents exams, with proficiency rates exceeding 80% in several subjects. The school also spends $16,435 per student, higher than the $13,516 spent at the elementary school, which may contribute to the stronger academic outcomes. In contrast, Chateaugay Elementary School has only received 1-2 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger in the past 3 years, ranking in the bottom 25-30% of New York elementary schools, and student proficiency rates on state assessments are well below the state average.

The stark contrast in academic performance between the two schools suggests a need to closely examine instructional practices, resource allocation, and support systems at the elementary level. The high free/reduced lunch rate at the elementary school (55.06%) indicates a high-need student population that may require additional interventions and support, which could be a contributing factor to the lower test scores. Addressing attendance issues at the high school, where the chronic absenteeism rate is 34.1%, could also potentially improve graduation rates and academic performance.
